This wind bell is manufactured using traditional casting techniques in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture. You can appreciate the clear sound which can only be made by a brass wind bell. Both objects are made of brass. The silver object is silver plated, while Takaoka's traditional coloring techniques recreates the beautiful brass color from ancient times. To accentuate the beauty of the material we make each object one at a time on a turning wheel. Given a hairline finish, the piece expresses a perfect harmony of modern design and traditional technique.
